Model 279B-120 DC Current Monitor
The Model 279B-120 DC Current Monitor provides reliable current monitoring for industrial applications. Operating on 120VAC, it handles a 1-10 Amps current range with a maximum continuous current of 15 Amps. Its robust design includes transient protection up to 2500 VRMS for 10ms, safeguarding critical systems from electrical disturbances. Users can fine-tune performance with 0% to 100% hysteresis adjustment and select automatic or manual reset functionality for operational flexibility. The unit maintains a repeat accuracy of 1% maximum across an operating temperature range of -20° to +131° F, ensuring consistent performance in varied environments. With an expected mechanical relay life of 10 million operations and a 5-year unconditional warranty, the 279B-120 offers sustained operational integrity and reduced maintenance concerns. Its SPDT 10A output contacts provide versatile control for diverse system integrations.
